Vote Marcus Banks for the All-Star Game!

Dark Knight · 01-10-2010, 10:45 PM

Hey, Hedo and Bargs got a thread, why not Marcus?

Sorry for wasting your time.

Kirby · 01-10-2010, 10:46 PM

For one he's not on the ballet.

Mr4thQuarter · 01-10-2010, 10:48 PM

All Raptors fans should do that. Vote for one of the shitiest players on the team and see if he cracks the top 10. I'll do that next year. It's too late now

Wait a second...Marcus Banks is a ballerina?

BBallFan · 01-11-2010, 12:14 AM

Hey guys = don't be too mean!

I happen to think he is a gamer - he tries hard, and is pretty good on D, have a decent shot. Maybe with a little more burn, he can be a good utility PG to back up JJ and or JC.

Torontosaurus · 01-11-2010, 01:12 AM

I'm already trying to use all my votes to get McGrady and Iverson in the starting unit

He might be the only player on the roster, outside of Evans, who isn't a ballerina.

Superjudge · 01-11-2010, 09:33 AM

don't make fun of Banks.

The guys is a decent hard working player now.

I like him.

**Raptorman** · 01-11-2010, 10:44 AM

Anyone that makes fun of Banks is clueless.

He's our third string PG, who has never complained and played great when asked to step in during Jose's injury.

What exactly were you looking for? A trade throw in to win MVP??

Just read through the sports pages and there are many 10th guys off the bench whining and crying about playing time.

I, for one, will look forward to the next time he plays.

Dark Knight · 01-12-2010, 07:24 PM

Who said I'm making fun of Banks? Heck, I'm trying to get him the ASG.

Mr4thQuarter · 01-12-2010, 07:29 PM

you guys don't understand

it's a mockery of the Vote for ASG threads not Marcus B, DK wouldn't dare

jrob23 · 01-12-2010, 08:04 PM

my hat goes off to how professional Banks has been about everything

i was a little skeptical after he refused to play in the summer league but i'd have no problem with him being our back up PG every night... I liked our team better with Marcus running the 2nd unit and Jose not being in the rotation

Rudy-T · 01-13-2010, 02:37 AM

As people have already pointed out, its not a joke on Banks, but more a comment on threads like "Vote Hedo for all star game". Of course Banks is not an all star and nobody is expecting that from him, but the point is neither is Hedo. Bargs probably isnt allstar material yet either, but atleast he is probably in top-5 people to be considered for east Center with his play of late. Hedo is not even near the top 15 forwards in east at this point.

good idea..

people organize, select and try one of their reserve player to make an allstar starter..if it is succeeded,it would be a great way to show david stern how this voting system is stupid and unfair..

if i were iverson or mcgrady, i would be ashamed to go to the allstar game..

The league needs to do away with the internet voting. Going to games in person should bring the benefit of being able to vote for All-Stars. That works for me. Instead the paper ballots could get lost in some closet for all anybody knows. The voice of fans in the seats gets overwhelmed by fans that might only watch a few games a year on TV, or whatever.
